Description
These hanging baskets contain established colonies of aeranthos hybrids, already growing together as a unit rather than shipped as loose individual plants. Over time, a basket like this fills in to create a genuinely impressive ball of foliage and bloom.
About aeranthos hanging basket
We already carry several individual aeranthos forms in our catalog, including nigra, purple, and various named hybrids. This listing is different: it’s not about a specific color form, but about the format. Each basket is its own established colony, and because these are hybrids, they’re naturally variable, so no two baskets will look exactly alike.
That variability is part of the appeal for a buyer who wants a ready-made display piece rather than a single specimen to grow out themselves. Due to the size of these baskets, extra shipping costs may apply; if that’s the case, we’ll email a bill for the excess charges to the address used to place the order.
Growing aeranthos hanging basket: Care Guide
Water the whole basket like you would individual aeranthos plants: soak for 10 to 14 days, then let it drain and dry fully with good airflow around and through the colony. Give it bright light and strong airflow to match the aeranthos group’s xeric growing needs.
Feed monthly with diluted TillyBoost Fertilizer, since a full basket of plants benefits from regular feeding as it fills in. Hang it somewhere with plenty of airflow; see our Air Plant Displays for complementary pieces. For general care guidance, visit our Air Plant Care page.
